Certification Business Analyst

 

Good morning everyone,

I am currently preparing for the Business Analyst certification. I have already completed the free Qlik training: https://learning.qlik.com/mod/page/view.php?id=24700#home.
Additionally, I took a course on QSExamStudyGlobal, where I scored 80%.
Do you have any other free resources that could help me maximize my chances of success?

Sincerely,
Théo ATRAGIE.
